    President Donald Trump has repeatedly boasted of his ban on travelers from mainland China to stem the spread of COVID-19. But nearly 8,000 people from Hong Kong and Macao were let in soon after the ban was imposed.http://apne.ws/fj4GVib

        Even if that totally stopped every visitor from China (which it didn't) that had/has NO impact on how WE handled/are handling the virus in our own country. That is on This Admin! We are AWARE, Mr. Pres.

        Why should we care if they were a citizen or not? 8,000 Chinese nationals and foreign residents of Hong Kong and Macao. They were traveling from a country flooded with a new virus that little was known about. Now, people in Mass can’t even go to Maine.

        And genetic data says the NY outbreak was driven by introductions from Europehttps://twitter.com/trvrb/status/1260281083767087104 …

        If we look at New York, we see that most infections appear to derive from an introduction from Europe in mid-February (node on the tree labeled "NY"). This introduction rapidly grew to a substantial epidemic focused in NYC, but frequently introduced to other locations. 5/14 pic.twitter.com/VNJsvYMTSF
